from Virtuous Daughters, February 2004~Volume 3, Number 11 When I stand at the judgment seat of Christ
And He shows me His plan for me, The plan of my life as it might have been Had He had His way, and I see How I blocked Him here, and I checked Him there, And I would not yield my will- Will there be grief in my Savior’s eyes, Grief, though He loves me still? He would have me rich, and I stand there poor, Stripped of all but His grace, While memory runs like a hunted thing Down the paths I cannot retrace. Then my desolate heart will well-nigh break With the tears that I cannot shed; I shall cover my face with my empty hands, I shall bow my uncrowned head… Lord, of the years that are left to me, I give them to Thy hand; Take me and break me, mould me to The pattern Thou has planned! -Martha Snell Nicholson Comments are closed.
